From 9/11 To Fort Hood, Ctd

There
is no end to the War on Terror and no way to prevent a 9/11 from happening
again.

What
I like about Obama is that he is trying to change how we view this conflict 
it isn’t nation vs. nation or ideology vs. ideology but rather an effort
to get the US out of the role of “The Great Satan”  that role
is a great recruiting tool for Al Qaeda and others and unfortunately there are
a seemingly endless supply of volunteers/suicide bombers. It will be a tough
mission but one that can and will pay dividends if he is given the time (and
support) to execute it.

Alternately,
we can spend trillions of dollars and lose thousands of lives (US and others)
but we won’t win as there isn’t a “loser” in this fight.
